It's never about promoting to have this is not good. No. But to have attachment, at least in this type of tradition, will have consequence. So it's not about what is it that you possess. It's about what of these possessions are possessing you. That's it.

Let's start with the sports car. Okay. It depends on the rest of the circumstances. So let me put it like this. If the salary that you have, for example, is just as much that you can pay your rent, nevertheless, you want to have that sports car, therefore take a loan, then buy the sports car. It's very probable you're going to be very attached to the car.

simply because out of the situation you bought it from. You didn't buy it from a position of abundance. So this is already not a good starting point, to afford something that you actually cannot afford. Differently it is when you have the possibilities,

And you just spend the time and spend also the money on the sports car and see it what it is and realistically see it how much time you, let's say, spend with it. I do think the excitement in the beginning is there for a week. Maybe a month, that's already long, but it's fading. And at some point, there will even be a day you don't even see it because you're busy.

And at some point, there will even be a day you don't even see it because you're busy.

Then there will be a week when you see the car once standing around somewhere. And then there will be a month passing by where you are traveling the world and you're not even sure anymore when was it the last time that you were riding it. And these are things like when you observe them and actually realize, yeah, it's the truth. This is how the development of things with possessions is.

In the beginning, it's always like you want to have, you want to have, and then they fade. And diving into this type of mentality of really understanding Wanting, wanting is the one part, and then realizing how is life really. Do you need it? Is it necessary? Can you afford it? It's the second part. It just opens another perspective. And then you just decide for yourself.

But so whether something is possessing you or you can possess something without being attached to it very much is linked to all of this. From which position did you buy it from? Did you attain it from? And then the second thing is, how much time do you literally really spend with it?

I make it super simple when it comes to the five hindrances. Literally, it's like this. Whatever appears in our life, if I have my goal set right now, what you are not supposed to do is to witness something And now if you have like the number one, sensual desire, sensory desire, what we tend to do is we like start to pull things towards us. That's number one.

The second thing, what not to do, this is what it all belongs to that family of non-judgment, is like when ill will, something appears in your life, something you witness, you meet a person you don't want to meet, you get the message, you don't want to read that message, whatever it is, and you try to avoid it by doing actions in order to push it away from you.

So what it ultimately means is don't do any of them because... Whatever you try to hold on to, the nature of thing is that this is happening. Swinging away. It's going to move away from you. And whatever you try to avoid and push away from you is just a question of time until it's going to move like pretty close towards you.
